My Innocent Girl novel Chapter 46

Heather

I was in the hospital, besides Chris. Doctors say that his nerve was not okay. It was gonna take a lot of time for him to become like before.

I looked at him. He was awake, but still numb by the pain I guess. He was looking at me and smiling and then closing his eyes and drifting to sleep.

I stood up and walked out of the ward. I was sitting there for an hour and I needed something to distract myself.

I left the hospital and sighed. The wind touched my skin and I felt better. This all is so tiring. I am completely frustrated. I don't even know why he got himself in this mess. Why did he go there? He didn't even tell me. I remember we were in the room and he was suddenly like, I will be back in a minute. I, um, actually didn't care much about where he goes so I didn't bother to go behind him, and then I heard this from the Police.

I know he didn't shoot himself, definitely that Vincent shot him. But I wonder why will he do this? Why will he go into the room of his ex and her boyfriend? Does he not love me? I mean, I don't know.

If he had to do something, why would he hide and go there? He would have told me.

Ah! These thoughts are driving me crazy. I sighed and went back.

There was a knock on the door so I opened it. It was Vincent. I got aside when he entered and he ignored me too. I didn't say anything but closed the door behind him.

He went inside and sat on the sofa.

"Let me remind you who I am" he looked at me and I looked at him. "I am the biggest Mafia boss"

"I know," I whispered.

"Why aren't you scared of me?"

"Because you love me"

"You sure?"

I looked at him and suddenly anger filled in me. Everything up till now was okay. I mean literally. Okay if you are angry, wanna punish me or something. But really? You stopped loving me?

I kept on moving and then decided to go back to Los Angeles. Maybe this is the only thing I can do to escape this mess. Or maybe to some other place because I don't... and I really don't wanna meet him ever again!

I booked the flight tickets online. I had at least that much money on my card. I had much more because I had earned and saved all this time.

I never thought this was coming but I saved this money for our future... Vincent and... mine. Like maybe if we ever need money. But...

uh.

Not again.

The flight was the next day, so I searched on google and booked a cheap hotel. Even a cheap one was expensive!

Well, I went inside and settled.

No matter what happens now, no matter how many difficulties I face, I am never ever going back to that bastard. No matter what life makes me face, but I know I will be and am strong enough to overcome it without him. I know I can do anything and I will.

I kept my things in place and sat down on the bed. I know I miss him, the way he treated me... till yesterday and all, but if that all was fake, I would just sit here and do what I have to, and that is move on and forget him.
